Detailed check-in instructions, including the exact address, are provided with your booking confirmation.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

What To Expect

Be aware this experience is not for everyone! Glassblowing is a physically demanding craft involving extreme heat and hands-on work with molten glass at over 1100°C. If you are looking for a simple demonstration or guided tour, this may not be the right activity for you. However, if you are ready for an authentic and intense glassblowing experience, this is an unforgettable opportunity.

The workshop includes an intro to the tools and techniques of Murano glassmaking, practical exercises with hot glass, and the chance to create your own glass object under the guidance of a glassblower.

IMPORTANT: The meeting point is on MURANO ISLAND, not Venice, and is located inside our gallery. Please allow enough travel time to reach Murano and arrive on time, as the lesson starts promptly and guests arriving more than 30 minutes late cannot participate. In that case the booking value may be converted into store credit. We are unable to delay the start of the session.

Participants must be at least 12 years old and have a good understanding of English for safety reasons. Translation apps cannot be used during the lesson. A maximum of one non-participating companion is allowed per booking.

Additional Info

  • Confirmation is instant and will be received at time of booking
  • Public transportation options are available nearby
  • Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries
  • Not recommended for people with health issues
  • Please wear closed shoes (no slippers, sandals, flip flops)
  • Synthetic clothing not recommended

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
